HELLO GEOFF. ITS LUKE REED CAPTAIN OF UPLYME CC. I WORK IN A BUSY PLUMBERS MERCHANTS IN CHARD (TOTAL PLUMBING), WE ALWAYS HAVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF WOODEN PALLETS HANGING AROUND!! LET ME KNOW IF THESE COULD BE OF SOME USE TO YOU...

Welcome to the Uplyme Debate and thanks for the offer of pallets for burning. I was really looking for hardwoord logs that burn slowly with a lot of heat. In the end I got some from the guy that supplies Steve at the pub. Very good they were too.

My family sells our own dry, split, seasoned hardwood for very reasonable prices. It's a drive-in system and you fill the bags yourself, giving you the freedom to choose the size you need for your particular fire/wood-burning stove. We are at Lane End Farm, on Springhead Road, just up from the crossroads with Rhode Lane and Pound Lane. And we also sell Christmas trees at incredible value, including some that don't drop needles - the ideal compromise between having a real tree for authenticity and a fake one for convenience!
